Thornburywitch@aussie.zone â¨1⊠â¨week⊠agoBack when I worked as a business analyst, about 80% of my work was translating geek into human and back again. Itâs a thing. Geek being insurance speak/legalese.

My job description is âParts Interpreterâ.
I have to translate descriptions like âThingyâ, âWhatchamacallitâ and âDoo-dadâ into useful descriptions through dialogue with the customer.
It is amazing how often the customer doesnât want to work with you in a dialogue and doesnât answer any questions or respond to clarifications.
